I meant firearms ownership. Do you agree with your governor that civilians should not be allowed to own long-range assault rifles such as the .50 caliber and that bulletproof jacket piercing ammunition should be banned?

Depends, I can't say I am thrilled that it could be legal for a long distance sniper rifle with armor piercing bullets to be able to kill fireman, police or even you from blocks away despite wearing a vest.

We all know close up that most bullets will penetrate a vest, so we don't stop everything out of some stupid panic.

Do I think there are to be limits on some of this? Sure!
